Scientists combine brain scans to map seizure sources

NCT ID NCT02342938

Summary

This research study compared different brain scanning methods to better identify where seizures start in people with drug-resistant epilepsy. Researchers simultaneously recorded brain activity using implanted electrodes along with MRI or MEG scans in 47 participants. The goal was to create more accurate maps of both seizure-generating areas and healthy brain regions to improve surgical planning and outcomes.
